First edition of "Tutti di Un Sorso," 3th and 4th June, Montalcino
In just ten days fifty artisanal wine producers from all over the world are coming to share their wines and knowledge in Montalcino at the first edition of “Tutto di un Sorso.” After some consideration, growers is how I choose to translate vignaioli, a word that in Italian comes trailing with significance, like the French term vigneron the word for vine (vigna/vigne) is at the root of it all. Vignaioli are the people who grow grapes and this underlines the significance vineyard management has in making high-quality wine. People who lose sleep over how many leaves to strip, who have working hands and talk about their vines in the way some people talk about offspring. They may also make wines but they are invested in all stages of production, identifying as much as farmers than as winemakers.The growers coming include some big names, albeit with limited productions, from all over the world.
The event's sub-title tutti i spiriti liberi – describes them as the free spirits of the wine world. Icons of the natural wine movement, like innovative Radikon and Gravner, from Friuli in the north of Italy bordering Slovenia, and pioneering and inspiring women such as Arianna Occhipinti from Sicily and Giovanna Morganti and her legendary 3 hectare Chianti property. Of course I am most looking forward to meeting the producers and tasting the wines with which I am not familiar, and am in a state of happy anticipation of these encounters. Many thanks to Marco Arturi, Francesca Padovani, OCRA and the Comune di Montalcino for creating, organizing and supporting such a splendid event!
